Freedom is one of the greatest attributes the man possesses. This is why everyone and every nation are in searching for freedom.

By means of freedom, will is applied, and it must be prone to good and not to evil. Man could do evil because he has capacity to do it, but he mustn’t do it, because he corrupts himself by doing so.

Real freedom means not to commit offences, as homicides, thefts, adultery, fornication, sacrilege and others. When man starts to avoid offences, he starts to walk to the real freedom.

Perfect freedom is the saints’ one, because although they could do evil, they choose not to do it, and therefore they ignore the slavery spawned by sin.

If each citizen is absolutely free, social life will be a coexistence of freedoms, where the actions of each one are limited by the others’ and freedom to choose is not imposed- because it would cause the tyranny of the strongest or the meanest.
